Kerala Ayurveda
Ayurveda is the science and Art of living life in a manner useful
to society. It has for its objects the preservation of health in the
healthy and the restoration of health to the diseased. The word Veda
in Ayurveda has been taken by all authorities to imply that it is
both a part of and addendum to the great Vedas which have also been
admitted by all savants of the West as "the oldest literature of the
World". At the beginning of the creation, it is said, Brahma, the
creator of the world recollected and created the vedas along with
Ayurveda in a book form named Brahma Samhita which is not available
today extends over a thousand chapters comprising altogether 100,000
slokas. Brahma first of all taught Ayurveda to Prajapati and who taught
it to Aswanikumaras, then to Indra, after him there developed two
schools of Ayurvedic science- Athreya School of physicians and Dhanwantari
School of Surgeons.
Ayurveda originated in India more than 10,000 years ago and is believed
to be the oldest healing science in existence, from which all other
systems emerged. It deals elaborately with measures for healthful
living during the entire span of life and its various phases. Besides,

a wide range of therapeutic measures to combat illness. These principles
of positive health and therapeutic measures relate to physical, mental,
social and spiritual welfare of human beings.
